Chip in today to elect Dem govs >>
Democratic governors are leading in the fight against Donald Trump. With our two historic victories in Virginia and New Jersey, grassroots momentum is on our side! But next year, nearly 80% of the country is voting for a governor – and with Republicans already investing to beat Dem govs, early support has never been so critical. Will you donate to elect more Democratic governors who will defend our rights and freedoms and stand up to Trump?
DGA Statement on Jim Neely’s Gubernatorial Announcement In Missouri
Today, Democratic Governors Association Communications Director David Turner released the following statement regarding state Rep. Jim Neely’s announcement that he is running for governor of Missouri:
“Mike Parson earned this primary challenge because of his record serving wealthy special interests instead of working Missourians. The Missouri GOP is deeply divided and will now have to spend time and money in a race to court the far right. The infighting will expose both candidates’ flaws and put a spotlight on both Parson and Neely’s broken promises to Missourians. We look forward to holding the eventual winner accountable for their out-of-touch positions in 2020.”
